EAU CLAIRE, Wis, Jan. 19.-Returns
to-day give no foundation for a perfectly
accurate estimate on the congressional re-
suit, but show that the plurality will prob
ably not be 400 either way and the chances of
Haugen and johnson so balance each other
that only an official canvass will determine.
The figures below are partly on complete
returns and partly on a combination of eSti-
mates made to-day by DR.. Johnson and MIR.
Haugen. The Pierce and Polk estimates
are DR.. Johnson's. The counties complete
or nearly SO are Bayfield,, Burnett, Doug
las, Eau Claire, st. Croix, Pepin and Wash
burn and the rest estimated. Haugen's
pluralities-Buffalo $50, Burnett IS, Dunn
200, Jackson 2O0 Pierce 425, Polk 225,
Barron 200, Trempeleau 200, total 1865.
Johnson's pluralities-Bayfield 2, Clark 100
Douglas 14S, Eau Claire $50, Pepin 40, St.
CroiX 300, Washbun 100, total 1,640.
Haugen'S small plurality. it is claimed, will
be swelled by 200 more from Jackson than
given above, but the Democrats are still
quite confident.
HUDSON, Wis. Jan. 19.-Between John
son and Haugen for congress honors are
easy. johnson has now 200 majority in
this county with four towns to hear from.
The county last fall gave Price, Republican
900 majority, Democratic gain of 1, 100.
Reports from the district as far as heard
gives johnson 900 majority. Haugen's
strongest precincts are to hear from. State
Chairman Taylor declares Haugen's cleo
ton by 800 to 500. johnson still has hopes
DURAND, Wis, Jan. 19.-Pepin county,
with one town to hear from, gives Price
3SS; Barden. 142; Haugen, 204; johnson,
210; TruaX, 112.
RUSK, Wis, Jan. 19.-The vote in this
precinct for congressman was very light,
owing to bad roads. Price and Haugen re-
ceved bare majority of the votes cast.
The town of Red Cedar gave Price a ma
jority of 81 over Bardon, and Haugen but
9 over johnson. The town of Elk Mound
gives daugen but % more than johnson.
These have been the strongest Republican
towns in the county.
ELLSWORTH, Wis, Jan. 19.-At
the election to-day in the town of
Ellsworth, Pierce county, DR.. Samuel
johnson received 1O7 votes and Nels P
Haugen 105. This town is generally 250
strong Republican and also Haugen's
home.

aiOr-.FRis Speech to- the LegisIa-
Iure.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.,, Jan. 19.-The legis-
lature met in joint session at noon to-day
and canvassed the votes cast yesterday for
United States senator. and Hon. Charles
b. Farwell was declared elected.
A committee was appointed TO notify the
new senator of his election. On entering
Mr.. Farwell was Received with applause,
and, being introduced, spoke as follows:
Mr.. Speaker, Senators and Representatives ::
by your parualty you have elected me to
succeed Illinois illustrious son, the Iamented
Logan. and TO fill his unexpired senatorial
term. have no adequate words in which to
express to you the gratitude 1 feel for so
great an honor. 1 do not expect
TO merit your expectations, as the
successor of such an eminent citizen, gallant
soldier and distinguished statesman as the
late John a. Logan l shall, however con-
tent myself by bringing to the discharge of
the high trust you have committed to me,
honest endeavor and faithful service. In my
Judgment one of the great questions which
will claim the attention of congress will be
THE LABOR PROBLEM
and to this ! shall briefly allude. There is a
feeling among many of the artisans of the
just proportion of the wealth ere
ated by their labor. Having been
reared on farm and having
devoted the early part of my life to manual
labor. my sympathies are with the laboriug
man, and any measure that Will bring the
employer and employe nearer together, and
will elevate and Tighten the burthens of the
labofing man will receive my earnest support
In this grand country of ours, of equal
rights and equal opportunities, we have no
classes-every persons position is made by
his own energy and industry and economy
and ability. Dnring the four terms
served in the lower house of con-
gress l voted for all measures for
the benefit of our soldiers This I
shall continue to do. The debt of gratitude
which we owe to them we can never pay. If
our gallant generals are justly retired with
pay at g. years of age, why should not the
private soldier be pensioned at the same age?
If we are, generous to the officers, let US be
just to the private soldiers. And now, hay-
ing said this much, l again express to you my
profound thanks for the undeserved honor
you have this day conferred upon me.
Senator Farwell leaves tonight for Chi
cago. and for Washington next week.

FRANK HISCOCK.

States senator to succeed Senator Warner
Miller. AT the two previous caucuses four
ballots had been taken and the caucus pro-
ceeded to the fifth ballot The candidates
were: Senator Miller Hon. Levi P. Nor
ton and Congressman Frank Hiscock. The
ballot resulted as follows: Miller 46, Nor
ton Sc, Hiscock II. This was one more
than Miller had before received, Mr.. Rea,
who was absent before, voting for him.
From that point to the seventeenth ballot
there was no change. On the seven
teenth ballot Morton's followers
went over in a body ,to Hiscock,
and the vote stood Miller 46. Hiscock AZ.
This would have nominated Hiscock had it
not been decided by the combined vote of
the Morton and Hiscock men when the
caucus first met that majority of all the
Republicans elect to both houses, forty
eight votes should be required. On the
eighteenth ballot Hiscock again received
the solid Morton vote, and Nh Frost
changed from Miller to Hiscock, thus Civ
ing him the necessary forty-eight and nom
inatiom. The choice was made unanimous.
The nomination is equivalent to an election
as the Republicans have a clear majority
on joint ballot.
TIE CAUSE OF THE SUDDEN FREAK
Dll m l40 o0NOhteClitH DaDot AlOui MOrlOu 10
Hiscock was the fact that after the sixteenth
Erwin withdrew Mr. Morton's name in
favor of Hiscock. A scene of great ex-
citement ensued. Motions for a recess
were made and withdrawn several times
and Senator Millers friends made strong
appeals to the Morton men to vote for
Miller, but without effect. as the seven
teenth ballot showed. When. in the
eighteenth ballot, Mr.. Frost changed to
Hiscock, it became evident that the strug-
gle was over and great cheering for His
cock ensued. Only one Republican men,
Der of the legislature was absent.
Other changes from HiScock to Miller
made the final result of the eighteenth bal
lot as follows: Hiscock 80, Miller 43.

Passenger Train Jumps the Track
..NO One Badly Injured.


Special to the Globe.
PRESCOTT, Wis. Jan. 19.-PaSsenger
Train No. on the Chicago, Burlington 81
Northern road. which left the depot at this
place last night at about 9:15 p. III. going
South, with Costoio as conductor, met with
a serious mishap about five miles below the
city near the locality known as Murphrie's
cooley, On account of the amount of snow
on the track two engines were used in pull
Ing the train, which was going at full
speed. When the train reached the above
named locality the track spread. the rails
on the left or east side giving away and
throwing the four rear cars. two sleepers,
drawing-room car and passenger coach from
the track. The engines and baggage car
ran on for about ten rods, where they
JUMPED THE TRACK.
Fortunately there were none fatally in
jared, although at the time there were
thirty or forty passengers on board. One lady
whose name could not be aScertained was
quite seriously injured in trying to jump
from the window in the coach, when she
was caught and pinned to the side of the
car by the seats, from which position she
had to be sawed out. A few others were
bruised somewhat, but not seriously. All
Tile CARS WoIe cOlHpletely TORN from the
tracks and thrown on their sides in the
snow bank. Doctors from this place were
summoned, but found their services were
not needed. A wrecking train arrived from
Grand Crossing with large crew of men,
and the track was replaced and cleared in
time for the o'clock train this afternoon.
Nearly all the passengers, including the in
jured lady. were taken to Diamond Bluff,
the next station below. The engines were
got back on the track and found not to be
injured. No cause for the accident is known,
as the track was known to be firm and the
rails secured. AS soon as another wreck
ing train comes up the entire debris will be
removed.

MASON CITY, Ia. Jan. 19.-News

strange. There seems to be no indications
of foul play, and yet it is almost impossible
to resist the conviction that there was some
human agency involved in the case.
